Summary | 0000664: Downloads|git clone uses unnecessary opening and closing quotes | ||||
Description | I usually select the git-clone line, which puts it into my mouse-select buffer, and middle-button paste into a command window. However when I press Enter, that generates the error: "fatal: protocol '“git' is not supported" because the bash shell does not recognize the ASCII 0x93 left-double-quote character. Of course everything goes as advertised after I remove the left and right double quotes. Since punctuation marks are simply not needed in a Gnu Bash command line. Wouldn't it be nice if there were no quotation marks at all? | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Select the git-clone command, copy/paste it into a command shell. Result: fatal error. | ||||
Additional Information | The git command works fine with no quote marks. | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
Fixed all 12 places in the manual and it is now updated on the website. | |
@Psnarf All 12 git clone statements with quote marks have had the quote marks removed in the Manual source base. It will not show up in the online version until the next release date potentially set for July 31. |

@Psnarf Interesting! So I tried it on the command line without the quotes and compared it to using it on the command line with the quotes and the disk usage (du) was of a different size (511380 vs 511388). I am compiling it now in the directory downloaded without the quotes to see if the size difference is relevant. I too "select the git-clone line, " using the left mouse button " which puts it into my mouse-select buffer, and middle-button paste into a command window" on Fedora O/S and do NOT get any error message. So something is different. However, if the build works just fine, even if the download size is different, I will delete the quotes in the manual. |
